Jesus, this just gets more and more complicated.... let me show you what Im used to so you can tell what I want.

...

So as you can see I want a simple one line of code to limit admins only for specific methods throughout ALL of my controllers in all of my app... is there a way? or somethng close?[/quote]

Hello Nacho,

If you take a look at the code I've provided you will find an extended_library which adds a method allowing you to determine if a user is an admin or not.

I've added Role_ID in to Tank Auth and thus I am able to pull a user's Role ID From the session like so:

Call this whenever you would like to confirm that a user is an admin.

Code:

$this->my_extended_auth->is_admin();

Hope it helps.
